n Management Discussion of Fund Performance Investment Objectives and Strategies The investment objective of (the Fund ) is to seek to earn income with some potential for long-term capital growth by primarily making investments in, or gaining exposure to, securities with income-generating potential. In seeking to achieve this objective, the Fund uses a strategic asset allocation strategy to invest in securities of other mutual funds, primarily TD Mutual Funds that focus on investing in securities with income-generating potential and may also invest in exchange-traded funds, debt securities and other income-generating securities. The Fund s asset allocation will generally be maintained within a range of 10 percent above or below the neutral weighting of 70 percent fixed income and 30 percent equities. The Fund may use derivatives to, among other things, reduce the risk associated with currency fluctuations, gain indirect exposure to securities or provide downside risk protection. Risk The risks of investing in the Fund remain as outlined in the simplified prospectus. Results of Operations The Investor Series units of the Fund returned 3.3 percent* for the year ended ( Reporting Period ), versus 5.2 percent for the Fund s product benchmark, which is composed of 70 percent FTSE TMX Canada Universe Bond Index ( Universe Bond Index ), 15 percent S&P/TSX Composite Total Return Index ( S&P/TSX Composite TR Index ) and 15 percent MSCI World Index (Net Dividend, C$) ( MSCI World Index (ND, C$) ). Returns for other series of the Fund may vary, largely due to differences in fees and expenses. Unlike the benchmark, the Fund s return is quoted after the deduction of fees and expenses. Market Update Over the Reporting Period, the Canadian economy improved as a result of increasing exports and rising commodity prices, as well as consumer spending and capital investment growth. The Bank of Canada raised interest rates by 0.25 percent in July and September, bringing its benchmark interest rate to 1.00 percent. Over the first half of the Reporting Period, mid- to long-term Canadian government bonds recovered amid lower oil prices, as well as slowing U.S. growth and the difficulties faced by the U.S. Administration to enact its growth-focused policies. However, near the mid-point of the Reporting Period, a number of developments caused bond prices to decline and yields to rise. Government of Canada bond yields rose across all maturities. The largest movement occurred among short-term bonds. The Canadian equity market posted gains over the Reporting Period. Health care, consumer discretionary and industrials were among the best-performing sectors, while consumer staples, materials and energy were the worst-performing sectors. Global equities posted gains, largely as a result of economic expansion. U.S. equities also advanced in response to increased economic growth. Europe reported solid economic growth as a result of increased consumer spending and exports. The Japanese equity market posted considerable gains over the Reporting Period. Key Contributors/Detractors All eight of the Fund s holdings contributed to performance during the Reporting Period. The Portfolio Adviser s preference for equities over fixed income contributed to performance. Within equities, the Portfolio Adviser favoured U.S. and international equities over Canadian equities. U.S. equities benefited from growing confidence in the economy, as well as optimism that tax reform and deregulation would provide a further boost to the U.S. economy. In contrast, high household debt levels, commodity price volatility and escalation of trade tensions with the U.S. contributed to the Fund s cautious positioning regarding Canadian equities and fixed income. Despite periods of volatility in the third quarter of the Reporting Period, fixed income generated a positive return over the Reporting Period. Exposure to corporate bonds and their higher yields in TD Canadian Core Plus Bond Fund contributed to performance. The Fund benefited from its global equity exposure. Epoch Global Equity Fund and TD International Growth Fund were among the top contributors to the Fund s performance. Within Canadian equities, TD Dividend Growth Fund and TD Canadian Low Volatility Pool contributed to performance. TD Dividend Growth Fund benefited from its exposure to Canadian banks, which delivered solid loan growth and benefited from higher interest rates. TD Canadian Low Volatility Pool benefited from its low exposure to resource stocks and its U.S. equity holdings. Recent Developments Looking ahead, the Portfolio Adviser continues to be mindful of a variety of macroeconomic factors that may influence the per - formance of financial markets. Economic indicators remain robust, with trade, industrial production, job creation and construction activity all positive. While these may further support solid economic growth, any optimism should be balanced against potential risks, including geopolitical developments, trade protectionism and central bank actions. Given the above, the Portfolio Adviser expects central banks around the world to continue winding down their respective stimulus measures. However, inflation has remained subdued despite improving economic growth and production, and the Portfolio Adviser believes this trend may continue in 2018, with elevated debt levels, demographic trends and technology acting as price restraints. Subdued inflation may moderate the need for significantly higher interest rates. As a result, the Portfolio Adviser anticipates that central banks may raise interest rates only modestly during 2018, which would extend the low-yield environment for fixed income investors. Solid economic growth may drive corporate earnings and, in turn, support equity returns. However, the Portfolio Adviser does not expect equity gains to be as robust as they were during the Reporting Period. * This section compares the returns relative to the Fund s product benchmark. See the Past Performance section for a comparison of the Fund s performance relative to the general market index. 1

The Portfolio Adviser continues to favour equities over fixed income, as the current low absolute level of bond yields is less attractive when compared to earnings on equities. Within equities, the Portfolio Adviser favours international equities over U.S. equities, with a geographic preference for Europe, where valuations are attractive, profit margins are improving and earnings have been positive over the Reporting Period in spite of a rising euro. While fixed income returns are likely to be low, bonds offer valuable diversification and stability benefits to the Fund. Related Party Transactions Affiliates of TD Asset Management Inc. ( TDAM ) may earn fees and spreads in connection with various services provided to, or transactions with, the Fund, such as in connection with banking, custody, brokerage and derivatives transactions. Manager, Trustee and Portfolio Adviser: TDAM, a wholly-owned subsidiary of The Toronto-Dominion Bank ( TD ), is the manager, trustee and portfolio adviser of the Fund. The Fund pays TDAM an annual management fee, which may vary for each series of Fund units, and an annual administration fee of 0.12 percent with respect to the Investor Series, Advisor Series, H-Series and T-Series units of the Fund. The Fund may also hold series of units of other funds managed by TDAM for which TDAM may be paid a fee. However, there is no duplication of fees paid to TDAM or its affiliates. Distributor: Units of the Fund are distributed through brokers and dealers including TD Waterhouse Canada Inc. ( TDW ), a wholly-owned subsidiary of TD. TDW, like other dealers, is paid a trailer commission by TDAM for distributing certain series of units of the Fund. Trailer commissions are paid by TDAM out of the manage ment fees it receives from the Fund and are based on the average value of assets held by each dealer. Buying and Selling Securities: TDAM has established an independent review committee ( IRC ) which acts as an impartial and independent committee to review and provide recommendations or, if appropriate, approvals respecting any conflict of interest matters referred to it by TDAM. The IRC prepares, at least annually, a report of its activities for securityholders of the Fund. The report is available on the TDAM website at tdassetmanagement.com or at the securityholder s request at no cost by contacting TDAM (see front cover). The Fund and/or underlying fund(s) in which the Fund invests relied on standing instructions from the IRC in respect of one or more of the following transactions: (a) trades in securities of TD or any affiliate or associate thereof; (b) investments in the securities of an issuer where TD Securities Inc., TDW, or any other affiliate of TDAM (a Related Dealer ) acted as an underwriter during the distribution of such securities and the 60-day period following the completion of the distribution of the underwritten securities; (c) purchases or sales of securities of an issuer from or to another investment fund or discretionary managed account managed by TDAM; and (d) purchases of securities from or sales of securities to a Related Dealer, where it acted as principal. The relevant standing instructions require that securities transactions with related parties conducted by TDAM (i) are free from any influence by an entity related to TDAM and without taking into account any consideration relevant to an entity related to TDAM; (ii) represent the business judgment of TDAM uninfluenced by considerations other than the best interests of the Fund and/or underlying fund(s); (iii) comply with the applicable policies and procedures of TDAM; and (iv) achieve a fair and reasonable result for the Fund and/or underlying fund(s). Registrar and Transfer Agent: TD is the registrar and transfer agent of the Fund, and as such maintains all unitholder records, processes purchase, switch, conversion and redemption orders, issues investor statements and prepares annual tax reporting information on behalf of the Fund. TD earns a foreign exchange spread when unitholders switch between units of funds denominated in different currencies. The Fund also maintains bank accounts and overdraft provisions with TD for which TD earns a fee. 2

The Fund adopted International Financial Reporting Standards ( IFRS ) on January 1, 2014 and accordingly adjusted the immediately preceding financial year ended December 31, 2013 to reflect the amounts in accordance with IFRS. Previously, financial statements were prepared as per Canadian generally accepted accounting principles ( GAAP ) under which the Fund measured fair values of its investments based on bid prices for long positions and ask prices for short positions. As such, the net assets per unit presented in the financial statements may have differed from the net asset value ( NAV ) per unit calculated for fund pricing purposes. Under IFRS, the Fund measures fair values of its investments based on close market prices, where the close market price falls within the bid-ask spread or based on quotations from recognized dealers. As such, the Fund s accounting policies for measuring the fair value of investments in the financial statements are substantively consistent with those used in measuring the NAV for transactions with unitholders. 2 Net assets and distributions are based on the actual number of units outstanding at the relevant time. The increase (decrease) from operations is based on the weighted average number of units outstanding over the financial periods. These tables are not intended to be a reconciliation of the net assets per unit. 3 Distributions were paid in cash or reinvested in additional units of the Fund, or both. 4

Any waivers or absorptions may be discontinued at any time by TDAM at its discretion without notice. 3 The trading expense ratio ( TER ) represents total commissions and other portfolio transaction costs expressed as an annualized percentage of daily average NAV during the stated period. Where a Fund invests in units of any underlying fund, the TER presented for the Fund includes the portion of TERs, if available, of the underlying fund(s) attributable to this investment. 4 The Fund s portfolio turnover rate ( PTR ) indicates how actively the Fund s portfolio adviser manages its investments. A PTR of 100% is equivalent to the Fund buying and selling all of the securities in its portfolio once in the course of the stated period. The higher a fund s PTR, the greater the trading costs payable, directly or indirectly, by the fund in the period, and the greater the chance of an investor receiving taxable capital gains in the fiscal year. There is not necessarily a relationship between a high turnover rate and the performance of a fund. Management Fees As manager and trustee of the Fund, TDAM is responsible for the overall business and affairs of the Fund, including activities related to making units of the Fund available to investors, and providing, or arranging for the provision of, investment advisory services and marketing services to the Fund. In consideration for the provision of such services, each series of the Fund pays TDAM a management fee. Management fees are calculated and accrued as a percentage of the net asset value of each series of units of the Fund, as of the close of business on each business day for each series and are paid monthly to TDAM. Prior to July 27, 2017, the simplified prospectus disclosed the maximum management fee rate that TDAM could charge for each series of units of the Fund (so the actual management fee charged to the Fund might have been less than the maximum management fee rate). TDAM was able to charge the maximum management fee without notice to unitholders. Effective July 27, 2017, the simplified prospectus discloses a specified annual management fee rate. Where TDAM chooses to charge a management fee rate below the specified annual management fee rate, the difference represents a waiver of management fees.
